Marriage Chant

Greg Brown

marriage is impossible  marriage is dull
your dance card is empty  your plate is too full
it's something no sensible person would do
i wish i was married  i wish I was married
i wish i was married  to you

marriage is unnatural  marriage is hard
you rotate your tires  you work in the yard
you fight about nothing every hour or two
i wish i was married  i wish i was married
i wish i was married  to you

the children throw fits in airports & such
they projectile vomit on aunt ruthie at lunch
& your in-laws know just what you should do
but i wish i was married  i wish i was married
i wish i was married  to you

i'd like to fix you my special broth when you're sick
i'd like to fight with you when you're bein' real thick
there is no end to what i would like to do
i wish i was married  i wish i was married
i wish i was married  to you

i like the roll in rock & roll
& all i know is you're the sister of my soul
& we make a circle  just we two
& i wish i was married  i wish i was married
i wish i was married  to you

the sky unpredictable  mysterious the sea
do we wish most for what never can be
it never can be i guess that's true
but i wish i was married  i wish i was married
i wish i was uh huh huh  to you

the grass is always greener is what they say to me
if I was your husband maybe I'd agree
i like brown grass & vows that stay true
& i wish i was married  i wish i was married
i wish i was married  to you  to you  to you  mmhmm  to you
